U+006F LATIN SMALL LETTER O pt=2938/2942 col=52

or

U+006F LATIN SMALL LETTER O pt=1913/3297 <1402-3298> col=42

I think that's more confusing than what we currently have -- pt and col
aren't very clear.  Compared to:

Char: o (111, #o157, #x6f) point=1913 of 3222 (59%) <1402-3223> column=42

And I have absolutely no idea what the stuff in <> is supposed to tell
me, but the current format has that in common with the proposed format.
